Answer:

b. 1600 watts

Explanation:

Modulation is the process of impressing a low frequency signal unto a high frequency signal so a to transmit over long distance.

If the modulation index (m) for an AM wave is less than 1, modulation would occur with no distortion, if m = 1, modulation occurs but if m > 1, it leads to over modulation and loss in AM envelope.

The total output power of an AM is the sum of the carrier power, upper side band power and lower side band power.

Total output power of an AM (P_{AM})=(\frac{2+m^2}{2} )P_c\\

Pc is the carrier power. Given that modulation (m) = 50% = 0.5:

P_{AM}=\frac{2+m^2}{2} P_c\\\\1800=\frac{2+0.5^2}{2} P_c\\\\1800=1.125P_c\\\\P_c=1600\ watts

PSYCHO15rus [73]
To solve this question you need to find the time span of the ski jumper before he lands
thus
25 = 1/2*10*t^2
50/10 = t^2
t = 2.23 seconds
and the distance is given 135m
speed = distance/time
= 135/2.23
= 60.5 m/s

Which of the following are examples of levers?
guajiro [1.7K]

The examples of levers are seesaw, door and corkscrew

Answer: Option A, B, and C

<u>Explanation:</u>

A simple machine which is capable of rotating or moving with respect to a fixed point at the center of mass is termed as lever. Lever is made up of a rigid rod which acts as the beam or the object on which the effort can be applied based on the load and a fixed hinge like thing named as fulcrum or the center of mass.

The fulcrum will be fixed and the beam will be rotating or moving with the support of fulcrum at the center for given load or effort. So among the given options, ramp is not falling under the categories of lever as door also have a fulcrum. But the ramp is only an inclined plane without fulcrum. But the Seesaw, door and the corkscrew has both fulcrum and beam which confirms them falling in the category of lever.

dsp73

Answer:

Esses movimentos são movimentos naturais.

Explicação:

Se uma pedra cair do topo de um telhado ou edifício, a pedra se moverá em direção à terra, enquanto a fumaça produzida devido à queima da madeira vai para cima, então de acordo com Aristosteles esses tipos de movimento são chamados de movimento natural porque de acordo à definição de movimento natural que não requer nenhuma força, então esses dois movimentos também se movem na direção para baixo e para cima sem usar qualquer força, então podemos dizer que esses movimentos são naturais.
